Alpha Discs
Alpha Disc Sources provide stable, reference‑grade emissions for education, QA and instrument checks. Standard 25 mm (1‑inch) plastic discs include open‑window constructions (e.g., Po‑210 on silver foil) to minimise self‑attenuation and support alpha counting and training.
Why teams use them
- Consistent emission geometry for teaching and instrument verification.
- Durable housings suitable for repeated lab handling.
